Laowa 85mm f/5.6 2x Ultra Macro APO is a mirrorless-designed macro lens with 28.55° angle of view for full frame. It is the smallest 2x macro lens in the Full Frame market. Super portable and handy for macro shooters. It features an apochromatic (APO) characteristic that chromatic aberration at both 'in-focus' & 'out-of-focus' is compressed to minimum. This new lens is able to focus from 2:1 magnification to infinity which can serve as both macro and portrait lens with great image quality.
A Burdenless Macro Experience
Kicking out the traditional heavy bulky macro lens, Laowa makes this 85mm lens to be revolutionarily small. Built specifically for mirrorless full-frame cameras with a smaller f/5.6 aperture. It is perfect for photographers who looking for an extreme lightweight setup, such as using in a Bioblitz. This lens would match the portable mirrorless camera body perfectly, making macro shooting a breeze while rendering pictures with excellent and outstanding image quality.
APO Design
The freshly designed 13 elements in 9 groups optical structure contains 3 extra-low dispersion elements which eliminates the colour fringing at both in-focus and out-of-focus areas. Rendering stunning magnified pictures without chromatic aberration would be an extra convenience to photographers as it saves much time and effort on post production.
Internal Focusing
The internal focusing design avoids collision of the lens and the objects. It also prevents the dust or ashes from falling into the lens.
